How many hours are you revising each day?

Scroll to see replies

Generally in the textbook the information is really waffly and so people write down key points according to the spec. Plus it might help others remember it more and when it comes down to revision instead of looking at a 100+ pages text book you have a a dozen or two of synthesised notes.

I personally make notes as it helps me understand the content and during revision I don't feel overwhelmed as my notes include all the necessary information needed.

But if making notes doesn't help you, then don't make any. As they say "different strokes for different folk".

I see. I don't make notes. Cba with that ****.

I really need to start revision, but I don't know what is the best way in which I can do so effectively. Writing out notes doesn't help me much some of the information sticks but not a lot of it. I don't know what other techniques I should try.

How can you do 12 hours a day as well as sleep/eat/have breaks/stay sane :confused:

I planned on doing that during the Easter hols because some people on this thread said they were revising 9 hours or more. But I didn't manage anywhere near that:')

Even though the exams are so close i'm barely managing 3 hours a day, i have HUMUNGOUS breaks

It's because i'm so bored and stressed at the same time about the work

It's enough learning about the subject without having to sit-down, be re-introduced with all the content all over again and have to drill it into your head. School and the standardisation of learning make all the otherwise really exciting fun subjects seem as dull as ever!

The people who are doing 4 hours are wishing they'd do 6 hours.

Can someone explain to me why people write notes from their textbooks for revision, when all of the information they need is in the textbook in the first place?

this

and when i rewrite the notes cutting words out and in ways i can understand.....also when i learn them i revise better and remember things from my own handwriting.

Yes I'm sure a few could tell by your horrendous aggression in the Evanescence thread.

I wasn't aggressive at all actually. You're the one who was rude for no reason and wanted to start a fight with me when you had no reason to. I made that thread because I love Evanescence and wanted to find like minded people who appreciate them. It's your opinion if you don't like them but I don't see the need to comment and aim to start a fight.

You'll actually find no evidence of this. This is exactly what I'm saying. You just defined someone else not sharing your view as a "fight", even by your own words as "rude", because of your aggressive nature. A fight? That's insane. A fight on a forum. Come on. You can be more mature than that.
